Pauric & James Gallagher are of course the twin brothers of Johnny Gallagher, they have been in the band from day one. Having toured all over Europe for years with Johnny. They are essentially the backbone of the Boxtie Band as they instinctively understand Johnny's music and always know exactly what and where to play in complementing Johnny's lead playing. James plays a solid consistent Bass throb, always powerful and never too busy. Pauric switches between his unorthidox organ style and boogie piano style. And Sean bringing in the punchy and groovy rhythm's and tie's it all together.

Pauric James Johnny and Sean have a force that doesn't appear out of nowhere, Its like an ageing process that takes time to mature, They also visit the unknown on stage, ad-libbing, jamming, improvising. and that's the magic at all their live shows, With James's punchy bottom lines and Sean's groovy swing, Pauric has the freedom to Boogie woogie and lay down his melodies, giving Johnny the scope for improvisation, To jam it out...and it also gives the audience the power to express themselves. That's the ultimate connection, that's what its all about. Its plain and simple Rock and Roll...
